Ask for the records
What would the paper say?
For a dated, located U.S. sighting, FAA radar data and ATC communications are the records most likely to exist. Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included. The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.

I was at the beach when I noticed something spinning in the sky. I stared at it for a few seconds thinking it was some sort of balloon when I realized metal shining as it spinner. The rotation and direction was consistent. I then pulled out my phone and recorded 3 seconds of it because the sun was so bright I didn’t realize I didn’t catch much.

Bright white light, sometimes suddenly dimming to an orange spark, then brightening again.

Distant black object in sky with a difficult to describe shape and a distorted surrounding (similar to looking at insect wings flapping very fast), when observed with binoculars (celestron 15x70), or just a tiny black dot with naked eyes. Appeared very small even with binoculars. Slowly moved from north to east until no longer visible. Viewed from a suburban neighborhood, clear skies.

Noticed small dark sphere appear from over tree line in back yard traveling at a fairly slow speed, similar to passing commercial aircraft during approach to Logan airport. Object was approx. at a 70 degree angle in sky from my position, so it passed not far from directly above me. Object briefly passed through low cloud cover as it moved over head passing by having consistent speed and trajectory. Eventually, lost sight of object in cloud cover in distance.

As we were driving in Quincy, MA, my wife and I both saw a green fireball traveling low at rocket speed. The fireball was bright green and has a trail of thin white smoke, that quickly disappeared. The area it was flying is assumed to be above Braintree or further down RT 3.

I stood in front of a tree to block the object from my sight. The object did come in to my view again so is was indeed moving. It did appear that some lights were flashing on it (blue/greenish in color).
